| Abstract English | In this paper we trace the establishment of the graduate school in mathematics education in Sweden. To provide a useful context for this initia-tive we review briefly the evolution of the PhD, the development of doctoral degrees and doctoral programmes in mathematics departments in Sweden, as well as the growing popularity of graduate schools. Progress and pro-gramme issues encountered to date are discussed in some detail. |
